Transportation Minister Kevin Falcon has said that Vancouver aims to have a green taxi fleet in time for the 2010 Winter Olympics. Falcon has directed the Passenger Transportation Board to issue new taxi permits only to hybrid and energy-efficient vehicles from now on in Vancouver and Victoria, and the Ministry will work with the taxi industry to replace the existing conventional fleet.
Will you be in one of those taxis in 2010? I know I will be!
